Which will mean that all the people of the same class will have to join the same company to be able to get the rewards they need.

We *already* have to chose between city states when we have to create a character (which, mind you, is the equivalent of what we had in FFXI, the comparison between nationality in FFXI and grand companies in FFXIV doesn't hold water, as we have nationality even in FFXIV), there's no need to force people to chose even for grand companies, which are, for all means and purposes, just mercenary organizations.
